I've wanted to try both marge lites and 650's on my 1x1, but ultimately think that in an urban area the marges would be the most fun. Obviously the 650's would be the best for commuting, but as far as fun factor goes, I'd get the marges and some hookworms.

I built up a set of White Industries hubs / Blunt SL 650bs and it has been life changing. Though I mainly use my 1x1 for mountain biking I do ride to and from the trail. For mostly urban I would go to 700c.

Decided to go somewhere in between my original two options and ordered up some Blunt 35 650b to lace to some White Industries hubs I have laying around. Starting out with some Vee Rubber Speedsters since I'm about 90% urban and 10% trail.
